I answer all those questions as I lay out 5 things I'd do differently if I was starting over with web design in 2025. You get all the juicy details of the mistakes I made along the way and the importance of adapting to changes in the industry, building efficient processes, developing a refined design taste, nurturing real-world relationships, and integrating AI into your workflow. These tips are aimed at helping new web designers set the foundation for a successful career and stand out in a competitive market.
